113: Perform

Perform

Shao Heng was an artist under Skylark Entertainment and exploded with popularity from latching onto the Starlight Entertainment's thighs.

After Xu Dong and Zeng Yaozu went down, Shen Sisi wrung all sorts of resources from the Starlight Entertainment in order to curry Shao Heng's favor and allowed Shao Heng to leech Ji Lingchen and his popularity, forcibly making Shao Heng popular. They were using the Starlight Entertainment as a stepping stone.

Gong Tianhao's words had never lost in terms of acidity.

The female assistant snorted from anger. "Young Master Gong is rather bold! You aren't afraid of Skylark Entertainment, but what about Hongxing Gang?"

"Who cares about Hong—"

Before Gong Tianhao could finish speaking, Ji Lingchen stepped in front of Gong Tianhao and halted his words. He looked at the assistant, unfazed, and said, "Got it. We'll arrive on time."

"Hmph, consider yourself smart! Act faster! If you're delayed and enrage Shao Heng, don't blame me for not reminding you! Oh right, Shao Heng said that no one on the list tonight is allowed to be absent; everyone must attend!" Then the little assistant sashayed out of the room with her high heels clicking on the floor.

Shao Heng was the grandson was the director of Skylark Corporation.

Due to this level of connection, basically no one dared to provoke Shao Heng in the Skylark Entertainment.

Now that Skylark Entertainment was prepared to acquire Starlight entertainment, Shao Heng was over the clouds. Naturally, he would not miss the chance to humiliate the artists of Starlight Entertainment who were his biggest competitors at some point of time. So he had instructed them to perform for him after the acquisition was completed.

"Damn! Brother Lingchen, why did you agree to her?! We are already at this stage and they want this young master to sing and perform for his entertainment? Am I a street performer? Go if you want to go, but I absolutely won't go!" Gong Tianhao exclaimed.

Jiang Xun looked at Gong Tianhao, troubled, and attempted to soothe him. "What can we do? Haven't we tried everything to prevent this acquisition? Just think of it as a function. People in our industry often have to attend these social functions anyway!"

Gong Tianhao bristled with indignity. "But Shao Heng, that punk is just a junior and rookie who debuted just a few days ago! Yet he wants me to sing for entertainment? Who gave him the nerve?"

"If I really sang, how could I hold my head high in the entertainment industry afterward?"

When Shao Heng forcefully stole the Starlight Entertainment's resources and freeloaded off of their popularity, they weren't too cooperative, so Shao Heng's actions now was merely meant to humiliate the Starlight Entertainment!

Fei Yang sighed. They were also understanding of Gong Tianhao's situation, but there was nothing they could do.

If it were anyone else, the impact of rejecting wouldn't be too significant considering their status in the entertainment industry, but this time, they couldn't afford to offend someone who had a background like Shao Heng.

Fei Yang walked over and clapped Gong Tianhao on the shoulder. "Forget it, forget it, Gong Tianhao. Don't lower yourself to their level. It's just a song, so pretend you're singing to a dog!"

Gong Tianhao protested, "I don't want to! You go sing if you want!"

Jiang Xun said, "Gong Tianhao, listen to me…"

Gong Tianhao clasped his ears. "I won't, I won't, I won't…"

The others were exasperated. Once Gong Tianhao was determined to act stubborn, no one could persuade him otherwise.

The room was locked into a stalemate.

At that moment, Fang Wen aloofly interjected, "Didn't you say that the girl who saved you last time said that she would meet you again? I think she will definitely be present in the auction."

Fang Wen had thought for a long time and he finally came to the conclusion that the girl who saved Gong Tianhao must be interested in Starlight Entertainment. Now that the company was about to be sold off, her presence would absolutely be there.

Gong Tianhao's eyes brightened immediately, "Really? How do you know?"

Fang Wen sighed after looking at this young master, "You don't need to know that. Just come with us tomorrow and you will know automatically."

In the end, Gong Tianhao was forced to follow them while anticipating the meeting with his goddess.

The next day.

At S City's Wester Grand Hotel.

The entire six-star hotel was booked out today, and guests arrived in an endless stream.

There were distinguished businessmen and politicians roaming around. A-list artists of Skylark Entertainment were also present.

Countless reporters caught wind of this auction and came with their cameras in tow to give the real time news of the auction.

"Wow! It's Qiao Kexin! And Evan! Even Wen Ziheng, who never attends private parties, is here!"

"All the A-list artists of Skylark Entertainment are here. It seems that Starlight Entertainment is done for. By the way, I heard that Starlight Entertainment's artists are prepared to perform for Shao Heng after the acquisition is over?" A reporter asked.

A veteran reporter replied to him, "Yes, Shao Heng is the crown prince of Skylark Entertainment! Those stars from the Starlight Entertainment had a boundless future ahead of them after the Golden Orchid Awards, but even they can only act as shoe bearers for Shao Heng! Even an international Best Actor on Ji Lingchen's level could only be a lackey for the crown prince!"

Another veteran reporter carrying filming equipment interjected, "In the entertainment industry, you can't do well simply because you have good acting skills and win a few Best Actors and Best Actresses. You also have to look at whose background is stronger!"

"How can Ji Lingchen and his group compete with Shao Heng? Xu Dong is currently still facing charges, and Zeng Yaozu can't protect them regardless of his capabilities. He even disappeared without a trace…" the veteran reporter continued.

The first reporter had nothing but agreement on his face. "That's right, that's right. What's most important in the entertainment industry is the strength of your backer! Otherwise, no matter how awesome you are, you can only hold someone's shoes for them!"

Those reporters didn't try to be quiet at all, so Gong Tianhao, who was walking inside the auction hall, became so incensed that he wanted to charge toward the reporter who spoke. "Damn! Who the heck are you calling a shoe holder—"

With the eyes of the public fixed on them and so many reporters present, a commotion would only humiliate them in the end.

Fang Wen quickly pulled Gong Tianhao back by his wrist and gave him a quiet reminder next to his ear: "Goddess."

Those two words were like a motivation and turned Gong Tianhao obedient, "Shit!"

Fei Yang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief upon seeing a solution to control Gong Tianhao.

Gong Tianhao was akin to the Monkey King who had his Band-tightening Spell activated.

"Hey! Our star today is here!"

Following an exclamation, a young man in his 20s started walking into the auction hall in a tailored Givenchy suit.

Everyone's attention instantly landed on the important figure, and they all fought to gather around him to court his favor.

"Young Master Shao, congratulations!"

"Brother Shao, congratulations for acquiring Starlight Entertainment! You're seriously too handsome today!"

All of them knew that Skylark was prepared to acquire Starlight Entertainment one sidedly as no other company wanted to offend the Hongxing Gang over a few artists of Starlight Entertainment's.

Shao Heng greeted all the guests with a faint smile. When he caught sight of Fei Yang, Ji Lingchen, Fang Wen, Jiang Xun, and Gong Tianhao though, he carelessly swept his eyes over them and aloofly asked, "Did you finish preparing for your events? It's all famous people attending today, so don't ruin it for me!"

Shao Heng's tone made it sound like they were his servants and could be ordered around at his will.

Even the good-tempered Ji Lingchen's eyes darkened at his words.

Shao Heng's junior female assistant contemptuously mocked, "Tch, the Starlight Entertainment, is it? You used to be extremely arrogant, but now? You wouldn't even dare to fart in front of Shao Heng!"

All the guests were people from the same circle, so Fang Wen and Jiang Xun also didn't look too good at being humiliated in public like this.

Fei Yang had mingled in this industry for many years, so he could bow and submit or stand tall and managed to maintain a smile. However, Gong Tianhao..

Fei Yang knew things were going to spoil at the sight of Gong Tianhao's expression. At that moment, he saw Gong Tianhao's expression changing rapidly from anger to happiness.

The audience around them, who were secretly anticipating a show, all couldn't help but sigh at seeing Gong Tianhao and his group keeping silent and obediently accepting public face slapping from Shao Heng.

Fei Yang looked in the direction of Gong Tianhao's sight and saw an average looking woman standing at the door of the auction hall.1
